How to Apply for the NHM Balasore Jobs
This is an offline process, so follow these steps very carefully to make sure your application is perfect.
- Get the Form: First things first, download the official application form from the Balasore district website.
- Fill It Out: Fill in all your details on the form. Use clear handwriting and don't leave anything blank.
- Get Your Documents Ready: Make photocopies of all your important documents (like certificates, mark sheets, ID proof, etc.) and sign each copy yourself (self-attested).
- Pack It Up: Put the filled-out form and all the document copies inside a big envelope.
- Send It Off: You must send the envelope using Speed Post or Registered Post only. Don't use regular mail!
⚠️ DON'T FORGET THIS! (The Most Common Mistake)
Inside your main envelope, you must include a smaller, self-addressed envelope (size 24x10 cm). You also have to stick a Rs. 40 postage stamp on this smaller envelope. They use this to mail you your call letter. If you forget this step, your application will be rejected straight away!
